About Niue
Niue is one giant atoll in the Pacific with an interesting geography and vegetation. It’s a large island with emerald waters nipping at its sandy beaches, green palms swaying to trade winds, no other island as far as the eye can see and guaranteed serenity and seclusion. Steep craggy cliffs fall sharply to picturesque grottos and gargantuan stone arches. Niue happens to be one of the handful of places in the world where guests can sit in an open-air bar and catch sights of the magnificent humpback whales splashing about a stone’s throw from the shores.
Wondering how to get to Niue? Flights to Niue are operated by Air New Zealand, twice a week with each flight taking approximately three and a half hours from Auckland. The Niue International aka Hanan International Airport, is the only airport in the island nation and a quick drive from the capital Alofi. Visitors travelling from Sydney or other parts of Australia need to fly down to Auckland before continuing on to Niue. Alternatively, cut down on the hassle and let our South Pacific Specialists come to your aid. While clear cool waters, plethora of water activities and unparalleled scenic beauty are great draws, it is the warm locals and the prospect of disconnecting with the world and reconnecting with oneself that has visitors coming back to the pristine sanctuary that is Niue.
Things to Do in Niue
Niue ticks to island time where each day appears to last a tad longer than it usually should. Thankfully, guests have plenty to do in and around Niue to fill their days with. Clear waters, gentle currents and pleasant temperatures makes Niue a divers’ paradise. Diving veterans and enthusiasts alike are encouraged to explore Avatule Beach, Limu Pools and the beautiful Matapa Chasm. Additionally, Niue happens to be one of the very few places on the planet where visitors can watch and swim with whales, July to October being prime months. Travellers can avail one of the regular whale-watching tours or catch sights of these gentle giants, a mere 50 feet from the shore! Niue’s deep waters also make it an angler’s haven. No need to step onto a boat, fish straight from a craggy cliff or from the shore and bag giant sailfish, skipjack and yellowfin tuna or any of the prized black, blue or striped marlins thronging the waters. Then, Niue’s subterranean caves are some of the largest and most complex in the entire South Pacific and absolutely worth exploring. Do check out the large keyhole formations, the many multi-hued caves and learn how they have become an intrinsic element in Niue’s folklore and history.
Best Time to Visit Niue
While the locals of Niue are always willing to welcome visitors with their warm smile and contagious spirit, we recommend a visit during the summers. Niue summers, stretching from May to October, are low on humidity and rainfall, making it the best time for excursions on land and underwater. Not to mention, trade winds greatly cool down the nights and make for especially pleasant evenings.
Culturally speaking, every day is a good day to visit Niue. As a rule, the locals do not need a reason to congregate, sing or dance…and guests are absolutely welcome to join in on the fun! What’s more, each of the 14 villages on this tropical haven have an annual show day where they showcase authentic craftsmanship, sports and dances; belt out local tunes while the many food stalls take visitors on an authentic gastronomic adventure. And so, regardless of when guests visit, there’s always a show-day around the corner. We suggest a village visit too, especially on a show-day. It makes for a fantastic cultural immersion that will last a lifetime.

While Niue offers endless activities to make your stay memorable, here are top five experiences, as curated by Hideaway Holidays’ in-house experts.
Firstly, Niue is one of the very, very few places in the world where visitors can swim along with whales. Guests get to observe these gentle giants in their natural environment and lucky ones get to hear a whale song or two. Additionally, Niue has some of the clearest waters with visibility sometimes stretching to nearly 100 metres, making it an unparalleled destination for snorkelling and diving. Rare corals and endemic flora and fauna guarantee an underwater experience like no other while underwater denizens mesmerise with their many hues and playfulness. Then, guests get to meet the many pods of spinner dolphins who call Niue’s warm waters their home. A guided tour of the limestone caves is a must-do, too! Niue has some of the most awe-inspiring caves and caverns in all of South Pacific, each more magnificent than the last. Come evenings, guests are encouraged to turn their sights upwards and soak in the sights of the bejewelled heavens. A dark sky haven, Niue offers a captivating unparalleled stargazing experience. Lie down on the sands, spot a constellation or two or get lost in the clouds of the Milky Way. Niue has and continues to be an experience like no other!
